This winter is expected fourth wave of infection of human influenza virus A (H1N1).
Based on the experience it had with other influenza viruses that have been presented for decades, the director of the School of Biological Sciences (FCB), Juan Manuel Alcocer Gonz?lez diagnosed above.
The background you have with the highest peaks in the presence of influenza viruses occur when temperatures drop considerably, and from these last two months of the year may be submitted to enter the icy stage 2009.
The conference "Development of pandemic viruses," which delivered Gonz?lez Alcocer was in the forum News on Influenza A (H1N1), organized by the Laboratory of Immunology and Virology, FCB.
To predict the fourth pair of strong presence of the human influenza virus, the director of FCB shared a brief history of what has been in the last century the disease.
He noted that the most remote origin of human influenza dating to 1918. This year introduced what became known as the Spanish influenza.
Subsequently there have been other influenza viruses, have presence in the years 1933, 1957, 1968, 1977, 1997 and 1999.
Among this group of viruses that have been known in history, Alcocer highlighted the experience that was experienced in 1997 with the emergence of influenza virus A (H5N1), popularly known as bird flu.
The virus that emerged in China, particularly in markets where people have direct contact with poultry, which is transmitted between them, but managed to mutate to infect humans too.
"We hoped this was the great pandemic for years," said Alcocer.
This virus was able to have a presence in Asia, Europe and Africa, although cases can occur without massive in America.
In the same vein, the specialist said that unlike what has been handled in the media about the origin of human influenza virus A (H1N1) was in Mexico, said he had it in the United States.
"It appeared in 2005 in U.S. pigs, presenting eleven cases in human patients were tested by laboratories. The virus is not passed to severe pneumonia, "he said.
What makes this virus, he stressed, is that the virus mutated in Mexico after passing through Canada.
The influenza A (H1N1) avian originated, pig and human. Therefore from the beginning it was known as swine flu.
"Viruses mutate constantly, though not so considerable, as was done in the name of this virus," he said.
While dictating this conference, the World Health Organization reported that he had found a mutation of the virus in Norway.
UPDATES ON INFLUENZA IN MEXICO
Felix Rositas, Infectious Diseases Service researcher from University Hospital UANL, gave a broad overview of the status living human influenza in the country.
Based on federal government data, Rositas noted that since late March and early April that it filed the first wave of cases of influenza, are being counted until November 19, 63 thousand 565 confirmed cases.
Young people between 10 and 19 years of age is the group that there have been more cases of influenza, and these, 19 mil three patients.
In the case of Nuevo Leon, until November 19 there had been 615 cases of three thousand human influenza, causing 47 deaths, 1.3% of all deaths nationwide, but did not rule out that there are other figures attached to the reality.
He said that according to the experience you have had with patients who have died of human influenza, they have all gone on more than one occasion to consult.
So do not go often recommended to consult to confirm whether or not the virus A (H1N1) since attending a doctor or a hospital there is more likely to acquire the disease there.
But not to arouse panic in society.
"The virus is seasonal, it goes traveling from place to place, remains at a diameter of one meter or a meter and a half," said Rosita.
One of the recommendations made is to get vaccinated against seasonal influenza virus, because according to research, it does help to generate antibodies against human influenza, short stay immune.
In his speech, expressed his appreciation for organizing the day's work at FCB, to perform on the morning of 20 November, the Forum on AIDS and by evening the human influenza
